Hola Familia!

So this week has been awesome! We found 3 families to help get married and then baptized! Were going to try to marry them this month, but it might push into March a little bit, but thats okay! What I have seen is that the Lord really prepares people to change their lives and come unto Christ! Its so awesome! 

 This area is really big! Much bigger than my last area! I think I'm familiar with about half of it.... hahaha! The ward here is really awesome! Yesterday I had to give a talk in Sacrament meeting, and they didn't tell us we had talks until about 30min before the meeting! So I taught the Restoration to the Congregation and why it's important that they read the Book of Mormon and share it with their friends! I talked for 15min! In Spanish! Ha! Cool right? So a lot of people are saying that I'm starting to become fluent! I don't think so! I need to learn more vocabulary!

We also baptized a Girl named Brittany! Shes 10 years old and she got baptized by our ward mission leader! We have been working with her for the last 2 weeks, she has been going to church by herself for 4 months and everyone thought she had been baptized!  So we helped her with that! She's a really awesome girl that wants to serve a mission when she turns 19.

So thats the cool stuff that happened this week! I'm healthy! So dont worry about that! The food in this area is really good! We eat a lot of fish and carne! I haven't eaten much chicken! Im sure that is going to change! Ha! Okay, so im going to answer your questions mom!

1. Yes, I do play piano for this ward! So piano lessons were not in vain! Ha! Carter and Samuel you have to learn hymns! My ability to read music has been improving!

2. Elder Pastenes is the District leader there! Wanna know something cool- my companion is this district leader here, he is going to leave with the next transfer and he has been telling me that I'm going to move up as a district leader when he leaves! That will be cool!
,if it happens.

3. I'm in the Wiesse zone. That's cool that he is in my mission. I've probably seen him but never talked to him! If I ever see an Elder Speed I'll go say hi!

4. More Reeses! I have found Hersheys products here but they are SUPER expensive. So send lots of those. Send me another pair of black pants- 32 x 34. The pants I have now still fit perfectly. Another white shirt- Short sleeve. Send me Oreos, triple stuff if they exist. Oh, and mac and cheese! I'll think of more things during the coming week!

I heard that gay marriage has moved into Alabama and that there are race wars in the states??? How crazy!! Here it's just calm. Sometimes at night, bad things happen, but only at night.

Oh, the computers at this internet cafe use windows xp, and my SD Card needs windows 7 or 8 to work, so no photos for awhile! Maybe I can find a computer somewhere else and upload them there! So sorry about that!

Love you guys a lot!
-Elder Wilson
